Hearst wants new pledge

Hearst council wants to change it's municipal pledge of allegiance.  The small mostly french speaking community wants councillors to have a choice between swearing allegiance to the Queen or the Country.  Councillor Andre Rheaume feels the change will be made noting the new oath of office wouldn't do away with the Queen it would just give councillors a choice.  The Ministry f Municipal Affairs is looking into it but has said that it's not a current priority.
